Attitude of Gratitude

A Christian leader once told me, “Linda, there is nothing more harmful to the soul than a heart of ingratitude.” Looking back, I see that my spiritual depth at that time was pretty shallow.

Getting God’s Perspective

How Beautiful are Your Feet in Sandals {Song of Solomon 7:1}

Time to Clear the Road

Yes, I have finally done it! I am starting to blog. Some days I feel my heart swelling and about to burst with a message of freedom. That tells me that it’s time to blog rather than write in one of my fat journals that only I can see. We serve a great God that...
